Alain's

Why?A Charlie Trotter's vet in the kitchen is always a draw.

The world-famous Charlie Trotter’s is no more, and it’s a shame. Still, diners looking to experience some culinary magic can sample the kitchen wizardry of Chef Alain Njike, who honed his skills at Trotter’s and Park 52. Inside the elegant space, visitors are surrounded by earth-toned hues and white tablecloths as the smells of New American cuisine jumpstart appetites. A plate of Midwest ratatouille offers a solid start, and entrees such as roasted halibut with kalamata olives and chicken with carrot-ginger puree provide the foundation for a memorable dinner.
